        Verse 1                                                 Jesu, what didst Thou find in me, That Thou
        Blest be the tie that binds                             hast dealt so lovingly? How great the joy that
        Our hearts in Christian love;                           Thou hast brought, So far exceeding hope or
        The fellowship of kindred minds                         thought!

        We pour our ardent prayers;
        Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one,                 Verse 4
        Our Comforts and our cares.   2/4                       Jesu, of Thee shall be my song;

        Verse 3                                                 All that I have or am is Thine,
        We share each others woes                               And Thou, blest Savior, Thou art mine:
        Our mutual burdens bear;
        And often for each other flows                          Chorus
        The sympathizing tear.   3/4                            Jesu, my Lord, I Thee adore;

        When we asunder part,                                   HOME
        It gives us inward pain;                                257 Thou Shepherd of Israel, and
        But we shall still be joined in heart,                  mine

        HOME                                                    Thou Shepherd of Israel, and mine,
        256 Jesu my Lord my God, my All                         The joy and desire of my heart, For closer

        Verse 1                                                 communion I pine,
        Jesu, my Lord, my God, my All,                          I long to reside where thou art:
        Hear me, blest Saviour, when I call;
        Hear me, and from Thy dwelling place                    The pasture I languish to find
        Pour down the riches of Thy grace;                      Where all, who their Shepherd obey,
                                                                Are fed, on thy bosom reclined,

                                                                Ah! show me that happiest place,
        Verse 2                                                 The place of thy people's abode,
        Jesu, too late I Thee have sought; How can I            Where saints in an ecstasy gaze,
        love Thee as I ought? And how extol Thy                 And hang on a crucified God;
        matchless fame, The glorious beauty of Thy
        Name?                                                   Thy love for a sinner declare,
                                                                Thy passion and death on the tree;
        Chorus                                                  My spirit to Calvary bear,
        Jesu, my Lord, I Thee adore;                            To suffer and triumph with thee.   2/3
